Medvedev: Russia is ready to defend the annexed territories by any means

The vice-president of the Security Council of Russia, Dmitry Medvedev, stated on Thursday that the referendums in the "republics" of Donbas will take place, with no way back. He also stated that Russia is ready to defend the territories it has annexed by all means, including strategic nuclear weapons.

"Russia has announced that not only mobilization capabilities, but also any other Russian weapons, including strategic nuclear weapons and weapons based on new principles, could be used for such protection. Therefore, various retired idiots will not scare us if they talk about a NATO strike in Crimea. Certainly, hypersonic missiles will be able to reach their targets in Europe and the United States much faster," he continued.

"The West, in general, all citizens of NATO countries must understand that Russia has chosen its own path. There is no way back," Medvedev said.

The statement comes after Russian President Vladimir Putin announced a partial mobilization in Russia and threatened the West again with nuclear weapons.
